Agorafabulous!: Dispatches from My Bedroom by Sara Benincasa

4.0

Sara mixes humor and tragedy into one. This is the funny memoir of a journey through panic attacks, agoraphobia, and eating disorders (if you go through those things too). Sara is witty, interesting, and a fabulous story teller. Each chapter covers a unique story ranging from high school study abroad trips, teaching in Texas, entering graduate school, and having to visit the ER for suicidal thoughts. This book was easy to read in one sitting. Some of the stories were so relatable for me. I think that made it more hilarious. If you have struggled with your mental health and are looking for something to read that makes you feel seen this is a good choice. Sara is unapologetic-ally feminist in her writing and paints beautiful pictures of the humans in her life.
